Voting for a person you think is not a good human because you need your party to win is the reason we have so many bad humans in office.

Scale was down 1.5 lbs this morning. Yesterday I ate 2 smokies with cake like buns, a protein shake, a left over chicken kebab, a heel of sourdough with butter and an embarrassing amount of mini chocolate bars. My diet course had a going to sell like hotcakes.

Could we have a couple more tiers added to this list? I really don't want to be in the last one.

Being coachable is a hidden superpower. It's a killer attribute in sports and in business.

What we are seeing in real time is people being deprived of purpose. To be clear the universe doesn’t owe you a sense of purpose, but the consequences of living a life without it are severe. Feel free to dismiss this case because it affects a small number of highly educated math savants, but soon it will be bookkeepers, paralegals, marketers, software developers and every entry level office job.

It doesn’t come without a cost. The fascinating question is will we be able to adapt to a world where work and intellectual pursuits can no longer contribute to our sense of purpose?

I found $85 in the pocket of my tuxedo pants, and the pants fit. Racking up the wins today.

Oops.

Pink Floyd meets the Old Testament. Aura at the Notre-Dame Basilica of Montreal. I think God would approve of the laser show.

Checking a Canadians game in Montreal off the bucket list. Go Habs Go!

I imagine @grok watching me write code, silently itching to take over the keyboard.

Every cubic foot of stuff that comes into our house must be matched by at least that volume leaving. We have about 1/3 less stuff in our house now, and I have never felt better in our space.

I used to see these all the time when I was a kid. Still creepy.
